At just 18 years old, Onkar Singh, known as @authoronkar, has already carved a name for himself in the world of technology, science, and humanitarian service. Born on 10th November 2005, this exceptional youth from Jammu and Kashmir, India, is a triple world record holder whose journey reflects brilliance, innovation, and boundless determination.
The World’s Youngest Web Developer
Onkar’s journey into the world of computers started early—very early. At the age of seven, while most children are still discovering cartoons and storybooks, he developed his first website, earning him the prestigious title of the World’s Youngest Web Developer from the World Record Certification, London.
From there, his curiosity only grew. By the age of nine, he had already dived into the intricate concepts of Windows and Linux hosting, something that even seasoned professionals take years to master. Over the years, he has designed over 65 websites, mastering complex tech frameworks with ease. His work is not only a testament to his knowledge but also his passion and futuristic vision.
Authoring a Universe at 12
But Onkar didn’t stop at technology. At just 12 years old, he authored a theoretical science book titled “When the Time Stops”, introducing fresh relativity and cosmic theories to the scientific community. The publication of this book earned him his second world record as the World’s Youngest Theoretical Author. Imagine a young boy contemplating the structure of time and space while his peers were playing video games—Onkar was already changing the narrative of what a child can achieve.
His book isn’t just pages of complex theories; it’s a reflection of an inquisitive mind brave enough to question and interpret the laws of the universe.
National Recognition with PM Rashtriya Bal Puraskar
On 22nd January 2020, a moment of national pride arrived. Onkar was honored with the PM Rashtriya Bal Puraskar—India’s highest civilian award for children under 18—presented by the President of India at the Rashtrapati Bhawan. This prestigious accolade was more than just a medal. It marked Onkar’s place in history as:
- The first child from Jammu & Kashmir to win the award since its inception in 1996
- The first Sikh personality ever to be honored with this recognition
This award wasn’t just about celebrating talent; it was about honoring values, hard work, and a vision far beyond years.
Global Impact with NASA and EMF Research
Recognition didn’t stop at the national level. In the same year, Onkar bagged First Prize in the NASA American Eagle Scout Award – 2020, organized by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), USA. His innovation and insights into futuristic technologies wowed a global audience and brought Indian brilliance to an international platform.
And just when we thought this young genius couldn’t surprise us more, on 10th April 2020, Onkar achieved his third world record—this time as the World’s Youngest EMF Researcher, again from the World Record Certification in London. His warning about the harmful effects of 5G technology reflects not just technical insight but a deep-rooted concern for human well-being. His statement, “5G is very harmful for humanity and we must stop the upcoming of 5G in the country,” raised important debates and awareness across digital platforms.
A Heart That Serves: COVID-19 Response Website
True to the Sikh principle of Nishkam Seva—selfless service—Onkar didn’t just excel in science and technology. When the pandemic hit and the world was in chaos, he took a bold step to serve humanity. He created a digital platform that enabled people to:
- Report COVID cases
- Chat with doctors
- Donate PPE kits
- Self-assess symptoms
At a time when people were searching for hope, Onkar built a lifeline. This initiative wasn’t just technological—it was emotional, timely, and deeply humane.
A Trailblazer for the Next Generation
What sets Onkar apart is not just the age at which he achieved his feats—but the depth and diversity of his achievements. From coding and writing to scientific innovation and social service, he is a multi-dimensional genius.
He has also been felicitated by SGPC (Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee) in Amritsar, further cementing his place as an inspirational Sikh youth leader. His journey is a beacon for the young generation—not just in Jammu and Kashmir, not just in India—but across the globe.
The Road Ahead
As he continues to grow, Onkar shows no signs of slowing down. His message to the world is clear—age is no barrier when passion fuels your purpose. He’s not only scripting code; he’s writing history.
We look forward to seeing where his talents take him next—whether it’s rewriting scientific theories, revolutionizing web development, advocating for safer technologies, or building tools that bring people closer in times of crisis.
